Abstract
BACKGROUND Clarifying the presence of viable severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) rather than SARS-CoV-2 viral RNA in inpatient rooms is important for infection control of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19). In this study, we investigated levels of viral RNA and viable virus on environmental surfaces and in patient saliva. METHODS Environmental samples from 23 sites in hospital rooms were collected every other day until patient discharge. Saliva specimens and samples from the inner surface of patient masks were also collected. Additionally, environmental samples were collected from 46 sites in hospital rooms on discharge day. The samples were examined using quantitative reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-qPCR) and plaque assays. RESULTS The 10 enrolled cases were classified as mild COVID-19, and patients were discharged after 6-9 days. The viral RNA was detected in 12.4% (105/849) of serially collected environmental samples during hospitalization, whereas viable virus was detected only in 0.47% (4/849), which were from sinks and tap levers. Although all patients recovered, three cases retained viable virus in the last saliva specimen collected. In the 15 discharged rooms, viral RNA was detected in 6.6% (45/682) of the samples, and viable virus was detected in only one sample from the sink. CONCLUSIONS Although environmental surfaces surrounding patients with COVID-19 were frequently contaminated with viral RNA, the presence of viable virus was rare and limited only to areas around sinks. These results suggest that contact infection risk via fomites in hospital rooms is extremely rare.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Multiple prolonged symptoms observed in patients who recovered from COVID-19 are defined as long COVID. Although diverse phenotypic combinations are possible, they remain unclear. This study aimed to perform a cluster analysis of long COVID in Japan and clarify the association between its characteristics and background factors and quality of life (QOL). METHODS This multicentre prospective cohort study collected various symptoms and QOL after COVID-19 from January 2020 to February 2021. This study included 935 patients aged ≥18 years with COVID-19 at 26 participating medical facilities. Hierarchical cluster analysis was performed using 24 long COVID symptom at 3 months after diagnosis. RESULTS Participants were divided into the following five clusters: numerous symptoms across multiple organs (cluster 1, n=54); no or minor symptoms (cluster 2, n=546); taste and olfactory disorders (cluster 3, n=76); fatigue, psychoneurotic symptoms and dyspnoea (low prevalence of cough and sputum) (cluster 4, n=207) and fatigue and dyspnoea (high prevalence of cough and sputum) (cluster 5, n=52). Cluster 1 included elderly patients with severe symptoms, while cluster 3 included young female with mild symptoms. No significant differences were observed in the comorbidities. Cluster 1 showed the most impaired QOL, followed by clusters 4 and 5; these changes as well as the composition of symptoms were observed over 1 year. CONCLUSIONS We identified patients with long COVID with diverse characteristics into five clusters. Future analysis of these different pathologies could result in individualised treatment of long COVID. TRIAL REGISTRATION NUMBER The study protocol is registered at UMIN clinical trials registry (UMIN000042299).

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Since the SARS-CoV-2 Omicron variant became dominant, assessing COVID-19 vaccine effectiveness (VE) against severe disease using hospitalization as an outcome became more challenging due to incidental infections via admission screening and variable admission criteria, resulting in a wide range of estimates. To address this, the World Health Organization (WHO) guidance recommends the use of outcomes that are more specific to severe pneumonia such as oxygen use and mechanical ventilation. METHODS A case-control study was conducted in 24 hospitals in Japan for the Delta-dominant period (August-November 2021; "Delta") and early Omicron (BA.1/BA.2)-dominant period (January-June 2022; "Omicron"). Detailed chart review/interviews were conducted in January-May 2023. VE was measured using various outcomes including disease requiring oxygen therapy, disease requiring invasive mechanical ventilation (IMV), death, outcome restricting to "true" severe COVID-19 (where oxygen requirement is due to COVID-19 rather than another condition(s)), and progression from oxygen use to IMV or death among COVID-19 patients. RESULTS The analysis included 2125 individuals with respiratory failure (1608 cases [75.7%]; 99.2% of vaccinees received mRNA vaccines). During Delta, 2 doses provided high protection for up to 6 months (oxygen requirement: 95.2% [95% CI:88.7-98.0%] [restricted to "true" severe COVID-19: 95.5% {89.3-98.1%}]; IMV: 99.6% [97.3-99.9%]; fatal: 98.6% [92.3-99.7%]). During Omicron, 3 doses provided high protection for up to 6 months (oxygen requirement: 85.5% [68.8-93.3%] ["true" severe COVID-19: 88.1% {73.6-94.7%}]; IMV: 97.9% [85.9-99.7%]; fatal: 99.6% [95.2-99.97]). There was a trend towards higher VE for more severe and specific outcomes. CONCLUSION Multiple outcomes pointed towards high protection of 2 doses during Delta and 3 doses during Omicron. These results demonstrate the importance of using severe and specific outcomes to accurately measure VE against severe COVID-19, as recommended in WHO guidance in settings of intense transmission as seen during Omicron.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) has spread rapidly since 2019, and the number of reports regarding long COVID has increased. Although the distribution of long COVID depends on patient characteristics, epidemiological data on Japanese patients are limited. Hence, this study aimed to investigate the distribution of long COVID in Japanese patients. This study is the first nationwide Japanese prospective cohort study on long COVID. METHODS This multicenter, prospective cohort study enrolled hospitalized COVID-19 patients aged ≥18 years at 26 Japanese medical institutions. In total, 1200 patients were enrolled. Clinical information and patient-reported outcomes were collected from medical records, paper questionnaires, and smartphone applications. RESULTS We collected data from 1066 cases with both medical records and patient-reported outcomes. The proportion of patients with at least one symptom decreased chronologically from 93.9% (947/1009) during hospitalization to 46.3% (433/935), 40.5% (350/865), and 33.0% (239/724) at 3, 6, and 12 months, respectively. Patients with at least one long COVID symptom showed lower quality of life and scored higher on assessments for depression, anxiety, and fear of COVID-19. Female sex, middle age (41-64 years), oxygen requirement, and critical condition during hospitalization were risk factors for long COVID. CONCLUSIONS This study elucidated the symptom distribution and risks of long COVID in the Japanese population. This study provides reference data for future studies of long COVID in Japan.

Abstract
The T2K experiment presents new measurements of neutrino oscillation parameters using 19.7 ( 16.3 ) × 10 20 protons on target (POT) in (anti-)neutrino mode at the far detector (FD). Compared to the previous analysis, an additional 4.7 × 10 20 POT neutrino data was collected at the FD. Significant improvements were made to the analysis methodology, with the near-detector analysis introducing new selections and using more than double the data. Additionally, this is the first T2K oscillation analysis to use NA61/SHINE data on a replica of the T2K target to tune the neutrino flux model, and the neutrino interaction model was improved to include new nuclear effects and calculations. Frequentist and Bayesian analyses are presented, including results on sin 2 θ 13 and the impact of priors on the δ CP measurement. Both analyses prefer the normal mass ordering and upper octant of sin 2 θ 23 with a nearly maximally CP-violating phase. Assuming the normal ordering and using the constraint on sin 2 θ 13 from reactors, sin 2 θ 23 = 0 . 561 - 0.032 + 0.021 using Feldman-Cousins corrected intervals, and Δ m 32 2 = 2 . 494 - 0.058 + 0.041 × 10 - 3 eV 2 using constant Δ χ 2 intervals. The CP-violating phase is constrained to δ CP = - 1 . 97 - 0.70 + 0.97 using Feldman-Cousins corrected intervals, and δ CP = 0 , π is excluded at more than 90% confidence level. A Jarlskog invariant of zero is excluded at more than 2 σ credible level using a flat prior in δ CP , and just below 2 σ using a flat prior in sin δ CP . When the external constraint on sin 2 θ 13 is removed, sin 2 θ 13 = 28 . 0 - 6.5 + 2.8 × 10 - 3 , in agreement with measurements from reactor experiments. These results are consistent with previous T2K analyses.

Abstract
We report a search for cosmic-ray boosted dark matter with protons using the 0.37 megaton×years data collected at Super-Kamiokande experiment during the 1996-2018 period (SKI-IV phase). We searched for an excess of proton recoils above the atmospheric neutrino background from the vicinity of the Galactic Center. No such excess is observed, and limits are calculated for two reference models of dark matter with either a constant interaction cross section or through a scalar mediator. This is the first experimental search for boosted dark matter with hadrons using directional information. The results present the most stringent limits on cosmic-ray boosted dark matter and exclude the dark matter-nucleon elastic scattering cross section between 10^{-33}cm^{2} and 10^{-27}cm^{2} for dark matter mass from 1 MeV/c^{2} to 300 MeV/c^{2}.

Abstract
RATIONALE Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) causes inflammation in various organs including the lungs. Pulmonary manifestations include inflammation of the pleura, vasculature, airway, and parenchyma, including interstitial lung disease (ILD). RA-organizing pneumonia (OP) is the third most common cause of RA-ILD. Cases of OP coexisting/complicated with lung cancer have been reported. Therefore, lung cancer can represent a diagnostic challenge, especially in patients with underlying pulmonary diseases including OP. PATIENT CONCERNS An 81-year-old woman with a 12-year history of RA-OP underwent multiple transbronchial lung biopsies (TBLBs), all of which resulted in no malignant findings. She was treated with prednisolone (PSL) depending on the deteriorated infiltrations. At admission, chest computed tomography (CT) images showed exacerbation of left S8 consolidation on chest CT. Additionally, her RA activity was exacerbated, and PSL dose was increased to 30 mg/day, which resulted in improved dyspnea and consolidation. Accordingly, PSL dose was gradually decreased. However, 6 months later, when PSL dose was 11 mg/d, due to a worsening of consolidation and the joint symptoms of RA, PSL dose was increased to 20 mg/d and tacrolimus 2 mg/d was administered. 3 months after the increase in PSL dose, dyspnea improved and PSL dose was reduced to 15 mg/d; however, she was admitted to our hospital because of low back pain. DIAGNOSIS Spinal magnetic resonance imaging showed bone metastases in the third and fifth lumbar vertebrae, and lung cancer was suspected as the primary tumor on CT. INTERVENTIONS TBLB was performed on the left B8 infiltrate, which showed no evidence of malignancy in the previous TBLB. OUTCOMES Pathological examination of TBLB on the left B8 revealed an adenocarcinoma that was positive for anaplastic lymphoma kinase. LESSONS Physicians should be aware of the development of lung cancer in regions with OP, even after a partial response to corticosteroid therapy.

Abstract
Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) is a recently-emerged infectious disease that has caused millions of deaths, where comprehensive understanding of disease mechanisms is still unestablished. In particular, studies of gene expression dynamics and regulation landscape in COVID-19 infected individuals are limited. Here, we report on a thorough analysis of whole blood RNA-seq data from 465 genotyped samples from the Japan COVID-19 Task Force, including 359 severe and 106 non-severe COVID-19 cases. We discover 1169 putative causal expression quantitative trait loci (eQTLs) including 34 possible colocalizations with biobank fine-mapping results of hematopoietic traits in a Japanese population, 1549 putative causal splice QTLs (sQTLs; e.g. two independent sQTLs at TOR1AIP1), as well as biologically interpretable trans-eQTL examples (e.g., REST and STING1), all fine-mapped at single variant resolution. We perform differential gene expression analysis to elucidate 198 genes with increased expression in severe COVID-19 cases and enriched for innate immune-related functions. Finally, we evaluate the limited but non-zero effect of COVID-19 phenotype on eQTL discovery, and highlight the presence of COVID-19 severity-interaction eQTLs (ieQTLs; e.g., CLEC4C and MYBL2). Our study provides a comprehensive catalog of whole blood regulatory variants in Japanese, as well as a reference for transcriptional landscapes in response to COVID-19 infection. Genetic mechanisms influencing COVID-19 susceptibility are not well understood. Here, the authors analyzed whole blood RNA-seq data of 465 Japanese individuals with COVID-19, highlighting thousands of fine-mapped variants affecting expression and splicing of genes, as well as the presence of COVID-19 severity-interaction eQTLs.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION The rapid spread of COVID-19 posed a global burden. Substantial number of people died of the disease in the acute phase of infection. In addition, a significant proportion of patients have been reported to suffer from post-acute phase symptoms, sequelae of COVID-19, which may negatively influence the quality of daily living and/or socioeconomic circumstances of the patients. However, no previous study has comprehensively and objectively assessed the quality of life of patients by using existing international scales. Further, evidence of socioeconomic consequences among patients with COVID-19 is scarce. To address the multidimensional issues from sequelae of COVID-19, evidence from comprehensive surveys beyond clinical perspectives is critical that investigates health, and social determinants of disease progression as well as socioeconomic consequences at a large scale. METHODS AND ANALYSIS In this study, we plan to conduct a nationwide and comprehensive survey for the sequelae of COVID-19 in a total of 1000 patients diagnosed at 27 hospitals throughout Japan. This study will evaluate not only the health-related status of patients from clinical perspectives but also the Health-related Quality of Life (HRQoL) scores, socioeconomic status and consequences to discuss the sequelae of the disease and the related risk factors. The primary endpoint is the frequency of long-term complications of COVID-19 infection. The secondary endpoints are risk factors for progression to sequelae of COVID-19 infection. The study will provide robust and important evidence as a resource to tackle the issues from the sequelae of COVID-19 from the multi-dimensional perspectives. ETHICS AND DISSEMINATION This trial was approved by the Keio University School of Medicine Ethics Committee (20200243, UMIN000042299). The results of this study will be reported at a society meeting or published in a peer-reviewed journal.

Abstract
Chemotherapy for multiple primary malignancies is challenging. We herein report a case of synchronous primary lung adenocarcinoma and hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). A 72-year-old man was admitted for the evaluation of an abnormal shadow on his lung. Computed tomography revealed a lung nodule in the right upper lobe and multiple liver masses. He was diagnosed with synchronous primary lung adenocarcinoma and HCC. Atezolizumab, bevacizumab, carboplatin, and paclitaxel (ABCP) chemotherapy was efficacious for both tumors. ABCP chemotherapy may be a potential treatment option for synchronous primary lung adenocarcinoma and HCC.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
Although pulmonary endarterectomy (PEA) is an established surgical treatment for chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension (CTEPH), a part of patients after PEA show residual pulmonary hypertension, leading to limited exercise capacity. Recently, several studies have indicated that balloon pulmonary angioplasty (BPA) improves hemodynamics, exercise capacity and prognosis in inoperable CTEPH patients. However, the effects of BPA in patients with residual pulmonary hypertension after PEA remain to be elucidated.
Aim
In the present study, we investigated comprehensive efficacy of BPA on hemodynamics, exercise capacity and right ventricular function in those with residual pulmonary hypertension after PEA.
Methods
From October 2010 to February 2019, 227 patients with CTEPH underwent PEA in our institution. Right heart catheterization after PEA (median follow up period from PEA to right heart catheterization 39 [10.5, 90] months) showed that 55 patients showed residual PH (mean pulmonary artery pressure (mPAP)≥25mmHg), and 38 of them referred to BPA (mean age 57 years old, male 8 (21%)) due to residual symptoms. In 29 out of 38 patients (76%) who completed BPA and underwent follow-up right heart catheterization, we examined hemodynamics, exercise capacity and right ventricular function before and after BPA. Follow-up examination was performed 3 months after last BPA session.
Results
In this study population (N=29), PEA significantly improved mPAP (47±7 to 38±10 mmHg), pulmonary vascular resistance (PVR, 14.6±4.6 to 9.2±4.6 WU) and right ventricular ejection fraction measured by magnetic resonance imaging (26.6±11.3 to 38.4±6.8%) (Figure). Median period from PEA to first BPA procedure was 42 [13.5, 94] months. Total session number during study period was 160 sessions, and mean session number of BPA was 5.5±1.5 per patient. Follow-up study revealed that BPA additionally improved mPAP (38±10 to 27±8 mmHg) and PVR (9.2±4.6 to 5.1±2.2 WU) (Figure). Similarly, 6-minute walk distance (393±125 to 452±125 m) and peak VO2 (16.4±3.8 to 18.1±4.6 ml/min/kg, p<0.05) were increased, and WHO functional class also significantly improved by BPA (I/II/III/IV, 0/21/8/ 0 to 1/27/1/0, p<0.01). In addition, right ventricular ejection fraction (38.4±6.8 to 44.2±7.1%) was increased after BPA (Figure). There were no procedure-related deaths and major lung injuries requiring oral intubation during study period. 3-year survival in patients after BPA was 100% (median follow-up period after last BPA session, 32 [18, 46] months).
Conclusion
In CTEPH patients with residual pulmonary hypertension after PEA, additional BPA significantly improved hemodynamics, right ventricular function, exercise capacity and residual symptoms without severe complications, leading to good prognosis. These results suggest that combination therapy of PEA and BPA could be an effective therapeutic option for post PEA patients with residual symptoms and exercise limitation.

Abstract
EGFR mutation-positive patients with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) respond well to treatment with EGFR-tyrosine kinase inhibitors (EGFR-TKI); however, treatment with EGFR-TKIs is not curative, owing to the presence of residual cancer cells with intrinsic or acquired resistance to this class of drugs. Additional treatment targets that may enhance the efficacy of EGFR-TKIs remain elusive. Using a CRISPR/Cas9-based screen, we identified the leucine-rich repeat scaffold protein SHOC2 as a key modulator of sensitivity to EGFR-TKI treatment. On the basis of in vitro assays, we demonstrated that SHOC2 expression levels strongly correlate with the sensitivity to EGFR-TKIs and that SHOC2 affects the sensitivity to EGFR-TKIs in NSCLC cells via SHOC2/MRAS/PP1c and SHOC2/SCRIB signaling. The potential SHOC2 inhibitor celastrol phenocopied SHOC2 depletion. In addition, we confirmed that SHOC2 expression levels were important for the sensitivity to EGFR-TKIs in vivo. Furthermore, IHC showed the accumulation of cancer cells that express high levels of SHOC2 in lung cancer tissues obtained from patients with NSCLC who experienced acquired resistance to EGFR-TKIs. These data indicate that SHOC2 may be a therapeutic target for patients with NSCLC or a biomarker to predict sensitivity to EGFR-TKI therapy in EGFR mutation-positive patients with NSCLC. Our findings may help improve treatment strategies for patients with NSCLC harboring EGFR mutations. IMPLICATIONS: This study showed that SHOC2 works as a modulator of sensitivity to EGFR-TKIs and the expression levels of SHOC2 can be used as a biomarker for sensitivity to EGFR-TKIs.

Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor tyrosine kinase inhibitors (EGFR-TKI) have become the first line treatment for patients with EGFR mutated non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) as a result of multiple clinical trials demonstrating superior response and less toxicity as compared to conventional cytotoxic agents. However, despite the clinical experience among nearly two decades, it is well known that EGFR-TKI monotherapy cannot cure EGFR mutation-positive lung cancer patients due to the occurrence of drug resistance. While dramatic initial tumor shrinkage is shown in most patients with EGFR-TKI treatment, therapeutic resistance is often observed in 1-2 years. This is likely caused by the outgrowth of rare pre-existing resistant clones and/or small fraction of drug tolerant persister cells (DTPs) which survive and acquire resistance to EGFR-TKIs. Several previous studies have clarified the acquired resistance mechanisms to EGFR-TKIs, but little is known how the DTPs survive during the initial phase of drug exposure and rapidly adapt to EGFR-TKIs. Utilizing the genome wide CRISPR/Cas9 screening, we have previously reported that DTPs were capable to exploit endoplasmic reticulum stress to survive EGFR-TKI exposure (Terai, et al, Cancer Research 2018). Further analysis of this data identified multiple genes which could affect the initial drug response to EGFR-TKIs, including the scaffold protein coding gene, SHOC2. In our present study we focused on this unique protein and revealed its critical function as a modulator of drug response to EGFR-TKIs in lung cancer cells. We confirmed that depletion/overexpression of SHOC2 in PC9 cells, an EGFR-dependent NSCLC cell line, renders the cells sensitive/resistant to all 1st to 3rd generation EGFR-TKIs. We have also confirmed similar findings with another EGFR dependent NSCLC cell line named H1975. Reduction of phosphorylation levels of ERK1/2 induced by EGFR-TKIs were stronger in PC9 or H1975 cells with SHOC2 knockout, indicating that SHOC2 can facilitate ERK1/2 reactivation during EGFR-TKI treatment. The above data indicate that SHOC2 is essential for DTPs and its function is correlated with MAPK-ERK pathway activity. Celastrol, a candidate SHOC2 inhibitor, inhibited the emergence of DTPs and synergized with EGFR-TKIs. Additionally, we showed that SHOC2 depletion enhanced the growth inhibitory effect of osimertinib in vivo. Lastly, we confirmed the increased expression of SHOC2 in clinical human samples which experienced EGFR-TKI failure. Our findings could offer a new treatment strategy for NSCLC patients with EGFR mutation leading to the increase of the degree and duration of EGFR TKIs response.

Abstract
Electron antineutrino appearance is measured by the T2K experiment in an accelerator-produced antineutrino beam, using additional neutrino beam operation to constrain parameters of the Pontecorvo-Maki-Nakagawa-Sakata (PMNS) mixing matrix. T2K observes 15 candidate electron antineutrino events with a background expectation of 9.3 events. Including information from the kinematic distribution of observed events, the hypothesis of no electron antineutrino appearance is disfavored with a significance of 2.40σ and no discrepancy between data and PMNS predictions is found. A complementary analysis that introduces an additional free parameter which allows non-PMNS values of electron neutrino and antineutrino appearance also finds no discrepancy between data and PMNS predictions.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
Heart failure (HF) is an epidemic in healthcare worldwide including Asia. It appears that HF will become more serious with aging of the population. The patients with heart failure and preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) were older, more often female, and frequently have comorbidities including hypertension. However, lower systolic blood pressure (SBP) on admission is associated with poor outcomes in patients with HF. It remains unclear whether this association is similar in very elderly patients with HFpEF.
Purpose
To investigate clinical features and prognosis in octogenarian HFpEF subjects.
Methods
We analyzed 87 consecutive subjects aged 80 years or older who were hospitalized for acute decompensated HF with left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) ≥50% between 2015 and 2017. Clinical characteristics and a composite event of cardiac death and HF hospitalization were compared in two groups according to SBP cut-off of 140 mmHg on admission.
Results
The prevalence of lower SBP subjects (mean BP = 118 mmHg) and higher SBP (mean BP = 166 mmHg) subjects were 41.4% and 58.6%, respectively. Lower SBP subjects were more comorbid with atrial fibrillation (72.2 vs. 45.1%, p=0.01). In the lower SBP group, diuretics, mineralocorticoid receptor antagonists (MRA), beta-blockers and ACE inhibitors/ARBs were more commonly used than higher SBP group (Table). During the observational period (median = 1.0 year), lower SBP on admission was associated with a 2.65-fold [95% confidence interval (CI): 1.29–5.55, p=0.009] greater likelihood of experiencing the composite events of cardiac death and rehospitalization for HF (Figure). This observation was still consistent even after adjusting clinical demographics and comorbidity [hazard ratio = 2.95, 95% CI: 1.30–6.87, p=0.01].
Table 1 Lower SBP group (n=36) Higher SBP group (n=51) P-value Atrial fibrillation (%) 72.2 0.01 0.01 Loop diuretic (%) 97.1 83.7 0.08 MRA (%) 47.1 24.5 0.04 Beta-blocker (%) 52.9 44.9 0.51 ACE inhibitor/ARB (%) 59.2 29.4 0.01
Figure 1
Conclusions
In octogenarian patients with acute decompensated HF and preserved LVEF, SBP on admission less than 140 mmHg is significantly associated with poor outcomes. Future studies need to prospectively evaluate optimal SBP treatment goals in very elderly patients with HFpEF.

Abstract
Abstract
Despite of the success of targeted therapy with tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKI) in epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) -mutant lung cancer, the duration of response is limited due to the inevitable development of acquired resistance. Previous studies have revealed that TKIs may induce survival in drug-tolerant cells (DTC) following initial treatment, leading to acquired resistance from further evolution over time. Moreover, recent studies have also shown that Bcl-xL is involved in the survival of DTC; however, little is known about the mechanism of how Bcl-xL regulates DTC in the presence of EGFR TKIs. Therefore, it is crucial to elucidate pathways which promote DTC emergence in order to develop more effective therapeutic protocols. In this study, we found that the Met/Ror1-β-catenin-Bcl-xL axis may contribute to the emergence of DTC in the presence of EGFR TKIs. We previously demonstrated that β-catenin has an essential role in lung tumorigenesis driven by EGFR-mutants, particularly EGFR-T790M. We found that genetic deletion of β-catenin gene reduced Bcl-xL expression both in vitro and in vivo. Secondly, in the presence of EGFR TKI, we found that Met-induced Ror1 activation led to tyrosine phosphorylation of β-catenin via Src. Our experiments further suggested tyrosine phosphorylation of β-catenin by EGFR and the Met-Ror1-Src cascade, whose sites were identified by mass spectrometry, plays a critical role in the interaction between β-catenin and a transcriptional factor, TBX5. Contrary to known transcriptional interaction with TCF/LEF, tyrosine phosphorylated β-catenin was found to form a complex with TBX5 and the transcriptional regulator, YAP1. This complex may regulate anti-apoptotic genes such as BCL2L1, which encodes Bcl-xL. Combination treatment with osimertinib and stable knockdown of Ror1 (or TBX5) effectively reduced Bcl-xL expression. Furthermore, treatment with osimertinib in lung cancer mouse model in which Bcl2l1 can be conditionally knocked out inhibited completely the emergence of resistant tumors compared to Bcl2l1 wild-type mouse model treated with osimertinib. These observations suggest that the Met/Ror1-β-catenin-Bcl-xL axis may serve to explain the underlying mechanism for the emergence of DTC. Our findings thus identify this axis as a promising target for EGFR-mutant lung cancer.

Abstract
Anti-tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) is a principal treatment for Crohn's disease (CD). However, it increases the susceptibility to tuberculosis (TB) infection, and therefore, screening examination prior to treatment initiation is crucial. Here, we report the case of a patient with CD who developed pulmonary TB following anti-TNF-α therapy, despite negative screening. A 19-year-old female who had no history of TB or had traveled to TB-endemic regions was diagnosed with CD. After negative TB screening with chest X-ray and interferon-gamma release assay, the patient was initiated on oral prednisolone and pH-dependent mesalazine. The treatment was changed to infliximab (IFX) because of the inadequate response observed to prednisolone;however, she developed pulmonary TB only 10 weeks after the initiation of IFX. The standard short-course anti-TB regimen was initiated to treat pulmonary TB, whereas IFX was discontinued and replaced with budesonide. Our case suggests that the risk of developing TB should not be excluded, despite the initial negative TB screening, particularly when a patient develops respiratory symptoms during anti-TNF-α therapy.

Abstract
The T2K experiment measures muon neutrino disappearance and electron neutrino appearance in accelerator-produced neutrino and antineutrino beams. With an exposure of 14.7(7.6)×10^{20} protons on target in the neutrino (antineutrino) mode, 89 ν_{e} candidates and seven anti-ν_{e} candidates are observed, while 67.5 and 9.0 are expected for δ_{CP}=0 and normal mass ordering. The obtained 2σ confidence interval for the CP-violating phase, δ_{CP}, does not include the CP-conserving cases (δ_{CP}=0, π). The best-fit values of other parameters are sin^{2}θ_{23}=0.526_{-0.036}^{+0.032} and Δm_{32}^{2}=2.463_{-0.070}^{+0.071}×10^{-3} eV^{2}/c^{4}.

Abstract
Abstract
Wnt/ β-catenin signaling plays a key role in the pathogenesis of colon and other cancers. Emerging evidence indicates that oncogenic β-catenin regulates several biological processes essential for cancer initiation and progression. The role of β-catenin in lung cancer with epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) activating mutations has not been fully understood; however, recent studies suggest that co-occurring genetic alterations in CTNNB1 might cooperate with mutant EGFR in promoting tumor progression and treatment resistance to EGFR-tyrosine kinase inhibitors (EGFR-TKIs). This sheds new light on this pathway in EGFR-mutant lung cancer. We previously demonstrated that β-catenin plays an essential role in lung tumorigenesis driven by EGFR mutants, particularly EGFR-T790M. We also found that β-catenin is activated through tyrosine-phosphorylation by EGFR mutants. In this study, we identified five tyrosine phosphorylation sites (Y5) of β-catenin by mass spectrometry. Tyrosine phosphorylation at these sites may be critical in β-catenin stability, nuclear translocation and its role as a transcriptional switch in oncogenesis. Firstly, we demonstrated that tyrosine phosphorylation of β-catenin disrupts the binding of a main ubiquitin ligase β-Trcp1, leading to an escape from degradation. Secondly, in contrast to known transcriptional activity with TCF/LEF, β-catenin that is tyrosine phosphorylated by mutant EGFR was found to form a complex with a transcriptional regulator, YAP1, and a transcriptional factor, TBX5. Immunoprecipitation experiments suggested Y5 tyrosine phosphorylation of β-catenin plays a critical role in the interaction between β-catenin and TBX5. Moreover, this complex may regulate anti-apoptotic genes, including BCL2L1, which encodes Bcl-xL. Combination treatment with osimertinib, a 3rd generation EGFR-TKI, and dasatinib suppressed Y5 tyrosine phosphorylation of β-catenin, leading to reduced Bcl-xL expression. Subsequent TBX5 knockdown in vitro decreased Bcl-xL expression while Bcl2l1 knockout in vivo mouse models suppressed lung tumor development. These observations suggest that β-catenin-YAP1-TBX5 complex contributes to EGFR-T790M lung cancer and may serve to explain the underlying mechanism for EGFR-TKIs resistance and for the effectiveness of combination therapy with osimertinib and dasatinib.

Abstract
A search for boosted dark matter using 161.9 kt yr of Super-Kamiokande IV data is presented. We search for an excess of elastically scattered electrons above the atmospheric neutrino background, with a visible energy between 100 MeV and 1 TeV, pointing back to the Galactic center or the Sun. No such excess is observed. Limits on boosted dark matter event rates in multiple angular cones around the Galactic center and Sun are calculated. Limits are also calculated for a baseline model of boosted dark matter produced from cold dark matter annihilation or decay. This is the first experimental search for boosted dark matter from the Galactic center or the Sun interacting in a terrestrial detector.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Interstitial cells of Cajal (ICC) serve as intestinal pacemakers. Postoperative ileus (POI) is a gastrointestinal motility disorder that occurs following abdominal surgery, which is caused by inflammation-induced dysfunction of smooth muscles and enteric neurons. However, the participation of ICC in POI is not well understood. In this study, we investigated the functional changes of ICC in a mouse model of POI. METHODS Intestinal manipulation (IM) was performed to induce POI. At 24 h or 48 h after IM, the field potential of the intestinal tunica muscularis was investigated. Tissues were also examined by immunohistochemistry and electron microscopic analysis. KEY RESULTS Gastrointestinal transit was significantly decreased with intestinal tunica muscularis inflammation at 24 h after IM, which was ameliorated at 48 h after IM. The generation and propagation of pacemaker potentials were disrupted at 24 h after IM and recovered to the control level at 48 h after IM. ICC networks, detected by c-Kit immunoreactivity, were remarkably disrupted at 24 h after IM. Electron microscopic analysis revealed abnormal vacuoles in the ICC cytoplasm. Interestingly, the ICC networks recovered at 48 h after IM. Administration of aminoguanidine, an inducible nitric oxide synthase inhibitor, suppressed the disruption of ICC networks. Ileal smooth muscle tissue cultured in the presence of nitric oxide donor, showed disrupted ICC networks. CONCLUSIONS AND INFERENCES The generation and propagation of pacemaker potentials by ICC are disrupted via nitric oxide after IM, and this disruption may contribute to POI. When inflammation is ameliorated, ICC can recover their pacemaker function.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Booklice, belonging to the order Psocoptera, are small household insect pests that are distributed worldwide. Liposcelis bostrychophila, a common home-inhabiting species of booklouse, infests old books, sheets of paper, and stored food. Recent entomological and serological studies demonstrated that L. bostrychophila accounted for the majority of detectable insects in house dust and could be a potent inducer of respiratory allergy. Our recent proteomic analysis identified a potent allergenic protein from L. bostrychophila, designated Lip b 1, and determined its partial amino acid sequences. METHODS Cloning of cDNAs for Lip b 1 was performed by large-scale transcriptome analysis (RNA-seq) and subsequent reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction. The full-length amino acid sequences deduced from Lip b 1 cDNAs were bioinformatically analyzed. The recombinant proteins of glutathione S-transferase (GST)-fused Lip b 1 were analyzed by Western blot and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. RESULTS Lip b 1 cDNAs encoding two types of 254-amino acid proteins were cloned. The clones shared 87% identity, and the deduced molecular weights and isoelectric points were consistent with those determined in our previous study. The two types of Lip b 1 proteins in the GST-fused form were similarly reactive with sera from allergic patients sensitized with L. bostrychophila. CONCLUSIONS Lip b 1 is a novel protein possibly causing booklouse allergy.

Abstract
T2K reports its first results in the search for CP violation in neutrino oscillations using appearance and disappearance channels for neutrino- and antineutrino-mode beams. The data include all runs from January 2010 to May 2016 and comprise 7.482×10^{20} protons on target in neutrino mode, which yielded in the far detector 32 e-like and 135 μ-like events, and 7.471×10^{20} protons on target in antineutrino mode, which yielded 4 e-like and 66 μ-like events. Reactor measurements of sin^{2}2θ_{13} have been used as an additional constraint. The one-dimensional confidence interval at 90% for the phase δ_{CP} spans the range (-3.13, -0.39) for normal mass ordering. The CP conservation hypothesis (δ_{CP}=0, π) is excluded at 90% C.L.

Abstract
The aim of this study was to assess the efficacy and safety of erlotinib, an epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI), as second- or third-line treatment for elderly Japanese patients with non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC). The patients eligible for this phase II trial were aged ≥70 years, had stage III/IV or recurrent NSCLC, and had previously received 1 or 2 chemotherapy regimens that did not include EGFR-TKIs. The patients received erlotinib at a dose of 150 mg/day. The primary endpoint was overall response rate (ORR), and the secondary endpoints were progression-free survival (PFS), overall survival (OS) and toxicity. A total of 38 patients with a median age of 76 years were enrolled. The majority of the patients were men (66%), had an Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group performance status of 1 (58%), stage IV disease (66%) and adenocarcinoma (74%). Of the 35 patients, 13 (34%) had tumors with EGFR mutations. The ORR was 26.3% (95% confidence interval: 12.1-40.5%) and the disease control rate was 47.4%. The median PFS was 3.7 months and the median OS was 17.3 months. The grade 3 adverse events observed included rash (13%), diarrhea (5%), interstitial pneumonitis (5%), anorexia (3%) and gastrointestinal bleeding (3%). Grade 4 or 5 adverse events were not observed. The median OS did not differ significantly between patients aged <75 years (14.9 months) and those aged ≥75 years (19.0 months; P=0.226). Therefore, erlotinib was found to be effective and well-tolerated in elderly patients with previously treated NSCLC.

Abstract
CASE REPORT A 30-year-old Japanese nulliparous woman visited for pregnancy at 33 weeks with a massive ovarian tumor located in the pouch of Douglas. By preoperative screening, her prothrombin time (PT) and activated partial thromboplastin time (APTT) were prolonged, and her FV activity was significantly decreased to 4.8%. After prophylactic FFP 20 ml/kg was administered and her FV factor was 19.3%, cesarean delivery was performed, and her perioperative course was uneventful. One year later, she underwent a dilatation and evacuation because of a missed abortion, although prophylactic FFP was not administered. During a third pregnancy, after prophylactic FFP 20 ml/kg was administered and FV activity increased to 21.1%, elective cesarean delivery was performed, and her postoperative course was uneventful. CONCLUSION For surgical therapy or delivery, the goal of therapy is to maintain FV activity above 20%. It is particularly useful to administer prophylactic FFP.

Abstract
Quality control of proteins in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) is essential for ensuring the integrity of secretory proteins before their release into the extracellular space. Secretory proteins that fail to pass quality control form aggregates. Here we show the PIGN-1/PIGN is required for quality control in Caenorhabditis elegans and in mammalian cells. In C. elegans pign-1 mutants, several proteins fail to be secreted and instead form abnormal aggregation. PIGN-knockout HEK293 cells also showed similar protein aggregation. Although PIGN-1/PIGN is responsible for glycosylphosphatidylinositol (GPI)-anchor biosynthesis in the ER, certain mutations in C. elegans pign-1 caused protein aggregation in the ER without affecting GPI-anchor biosynthesis. These results show that PIGN-1/PIGN has a conserved and non-canonical function to prevent deleterious protein aggregation in the ER independently of the GPI-anchor biosynthesis. PIGN is a causative gene for some human diseases including multiple congenital seizure-related syndrome (MCAHS1). Two pign-1 mutations created by CRISPR/Cas9 that correspond to MCAHS1 also cause protein aggregation in the ER, implying that the dysfunction of the PIGN non-canonical function might affect symptoms of MCAHS1 and potentially those of other diseases.

Abstract
We report the first measurement of the flux-averaged cross section for charged current coherent π^{+} production on carbon for neutrino energies less than 1.5 GeV, and with a restriction on the final state phase space volume in the T2K near detector, ND280. Comparisons are made with predictions from the Rein-Sehgal coherent production model and the model by Alvarez-Ruso et al., the latter representing the first implementation of an instance of the new class of microscopic coherent models in a neutrino interaction Monte Carlo event generator. We observe a clear event excess above background, disagreeing with the null results reported by K2K and SciBooNE in a similar neutrino energy region. The measured flux-averaged cross sections are below those predicted by both the Rein-Sehgal and Alvarez-Ruso et al.

Abstract
A tailored-pulse-imploded core with a diameter of 70 μm is flashed by counterirradiating 110 fs, 7 TW laser pulses. Photon emission (>40 eV) from the core exceeds the emission from the imploded core by 6 times, even though the heating pulse energies are only one seventh of the implosion energy. The coupling efficiency from the heating laser to the core using counterirradiation is 14% from the enhancement of photon emission. Neutrons are also produced by counterpropagating fast deuterons accelerated by the photon pressure of the heating pulses. A collisional two-dimensional particle-in-cell simulation reveals that the collisionless two counterpropagating fast-electron currents induce mega-Gauss magnetic filaments in the center of the core due to the Weibel instability. The counterpropagating fast-electron currents are absolutely unstable and independent of the core density and resistivity. Fast electrons with energy below a few MeV are trapped by these filaments in the core region, inducing an additional coupling. This might lead to the observed bright photon emissions.

Abstract
Submicrometer-sized polystyrene (PS) particles carrying stimuli-responsive poly[2-(diethylamino)ethyl methacrylate] (PDEA) hairs with degrees of polymerization of 30, 60 and 90 were synthesized by dispersion polymerization and used as a particulate foam stabilizer. The effects of the composition of these PDEA-PS particles and foam formation conditions on foamability, foam stability and foam microstructures were extensively investigated. The hairy particles were found to work as an effective stabilizer of aqueous foams in basic media, in which the PDEA hairs are not protonated and thus the particle surfaces exhibit suitable wettability at the air-water interface. In contrast, little to no foam or unstable foams were formed in acidic aqueous media, in which the hairs are protonated and are therefore water soluble. Particles carrying longer hairs resulted in greater foamability and more highly stabilized foams that were capable of persisting for more than one month. Foams were found to form in a narrower pH range when using PS particles with longer hairs, due to both entropic and image charge effects. Data obtained from the touch mixer mixing method showed that both foamability and foam stability increased with increases in the concentration of polymer particles up to 10 wt%, because higher concentrations allowed greater air-water interfacial areas to be stabilized. Conversely, only minimal foam was obtained at and above 15 wt% because of the high viscosity of the resulting aqueous particle dispersion. Trials using the homogenizer mixing method showed that foam with a cream-like texture could be formed even at 40 wt% particle concentration as a result of the improved mixing efficiency. Defoamation could be induced by exposing the foams to HCl vapor. Exposure to acidic vapor led to in situ protonation of the 2-(diethylamino)ethyl methacrylate residues, rendering the PDEA hairs hydrophilic and water soluble, and desorption of the PDEA-PS particles from the air-water interface.

Abstract
T2K reports its first measurements of the parameters governing the disappearance of ν[over ¯]_{μ} in an off-axis beam due to flavor change induced by neutrino oscillations. The quasimonochromatic ν[over ¯]_{μ} beam, produced with a peak energy of 0.6 GeV at J-PARC, is observed at the far detector Super-Kamiokande, 295 km away, where the ν[over ¯]_{μ} survival probability is expected to be minimal. Using a data set corresponding to 4.01×10^{20} protons on target, 34 fully contained μ-like events were observed. The best-fit oscillation parameters are sin^{2}(θ[over ¯]_{23})=0.45 and |Δm[over ¯]_{32}^{2}|=2.51×10^{-3} eV^{2} with 68% confidence intervals of 0.38-0.64 and 2.26-2.80×10^{-3} eV^{2}, respectively. These results are in agreement with existing antineutrino parameter measurements and also with the ν_{μ} disappearance parameters measured by T2K.

Abstract
This study tested for links among behaviour, state and life-history variables as predicted by the pace-of-life hypothesis in adult pike Esox lucius. First, a standardized open-field behavioural assay was developed to assess individual behaviour of wild-captured adult E. lucius. Behaviour within the standardized assay predicted swimming behaviour in the lake, providing an ecological validation of the assay. There was no relationship between standardized behaviour and any of the life-history and state variables, including metabolism, body condition, juvenile growth rate and adult growth rate in contrast to predictions from the pace-of-life hypothesis. This study demonstrates that it is possible to assess ecologically relevant behavioural variation in a large-bodied top predator using a standard open-field assay, but it is noteworthy that this standardized behaviour is not systematically related to standard metabolism or growth.

Abstract
Submicrometer-sized polystyrene (PS) particles carrying poly[2-(diethylamino)ethyl methacrylate] (PDEA) hairs (PDEA-PS particles) were synthesized by free radical dispersion polymerization. The hydrophilicity-hydrophobicity balance of the PDEA could be tuned by varying the temperature at near neutral pH (a lower critical solution temperature of PDEA at pH 6.86, 41 °C) and therefore these sterically-stabilized particles acted as temperature-sensitive stabilizers for aqueous foams. At 25 °C, where the PDEA hairs were hydrated and PDEA-PS particles were colloidally stable in aqueous media, foams were formed which coalesced with time and the size of the bubble increased. At 40 and 45 °C, where the PDEA hairs were partially non-hydrated and PDEA-PS particles were close to flocculation or weakly flocculated, foams were formed and bubble coalescence and size increase speeds were slower than those observed at 25 °C. At and above 50 °C, where the PDEA hairs were non-hydrated and PDEA-PS particles were heavily flocculated in aqueous media, the more stable cream-like foams whose volume was almost the same for 1 week were formed. Scanning electron microscopy studies indicated that the particles mainly adsorbed at the air-water interface as monolayers at 25 °C and as multilayers at and above 40 °C. The foam stability and structure could be controlled by changing the temperature.
